Every time there is a new Doctor or companion it's like this very old show reboots itself, and it's a chance for new viewers or old viewers who have become jaded to start afresh with it.
I was in the latter of those two camps, but was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this episode. The new companion offers something a bit different, and in his last series as The Doctor, Peter Capaldi seems to have relaxed into the role and is having fun with it.
And I understood the plot! That's a lovely change because over the last few series Steven Moffatt's plots (I'm aware he doesn't write every episode)have become complex to the extreme. It's great that there seems to have been a push to go back to basics this series.
Well done, Dr Who, this is better. Keep it up
